dpd project [VERSION 2!] [Full List of Discs] [FAQ] [Find A Song or Band] [Message Board]      

Welcome to DPD!


The DPD Project is a thematic mix-CD project created by music geeks and best friends Chris Diamond, Chris Prokop, and Michael Darpino.

Each CD in the project has a theme that ties the songs on it together. For every theme we each pick five songs that we feel best represent it. The collected fifteen songs are then mixed together in alternating order based on our last names. The songs that end up on DPD are meant to be the very best songs for their particular theme.

We write liner notes for each song to explain why we picked it for that theme. The project has grown into a sort of musical memoir over the years since music has been and still is such a huge part of our lives.

cuz we were, cuz we were.....

This is such a small part of everything that's gone on between us, but the song is from early on during those formative times. We each had similar backgrounds, grew up in central PA, same music genres, just different veins. Industrial hits, and we both really got into it, as it was so different from everything else going on.

It was 1990, I had a year of philosophy under my belt, delving deep into crazy physics. Dan was just as insane. Grunge hadn't exploded yet, and this was the hottest shit going. TKK, 242, Die Warsau, Puppy, the 'new' Minisrty. We pretty much thrived by causing shock and awe into everyone around us, and made a pretty crazy tag-team of mayhem, intellectually, socially, and criminally.

We flaunted diversity in the face of 80's liberal politics, and sent the kids home crying. We helped usher in the 70's revival through crazy suits, mixed with 90's industrial attitude and blue hair. We argued the pros of infanticide at pro-life meetings. We saw NIN at a western bar in PA years before they broke. We unabashedly renounced god, religion, and theology to the point people prayed for our souls. PWD Unusual T. We threw shit off seven story parking garages and filmed it a decade before Jackass.

We were kooler than jesus.
